Hopefully if we have a UK Bass Bash it'll be in Northants again, in which case I'll be there. If you send it back in one piece then you can enjoy a Barefaced cab for a week or so for the cost of return postage (about £20). Cheaper than renting one?Alex[/quote] Is there anyone in Northampton / Kettering / Corby area who also wants to try one of Alex's cab's? We can then hopefully get our hands on one for a couple of weeks between us, as I need to give it a couple of gigs or at very least a practice to make up my mind. Might as well take advantage of trying one is you can ! Alex - It will be sent back in the same condition as received, don't worry ! Now just to decide which one, what is available to test? I currently us a MarkBass 410HF (front ported 4x10) and need punch, projection and play in a 4 piece covers band playing Stones to Stereophonice, Van Morrison to Oasis etc What would you suggest? Cheers Ade

I actually bought a Landmark 300 off Cetera when he got his Landmark 600 1/ They sound amazing 2/ Very versatile, although I also struggled to get a totally clean sound possible only available on one channel with the 'blend' off, not sure now. 3/ Slightly underpowered 4/ Did I say they sound amazing !? If you can get one for the right price I'd give it a go, although you would need to run it at 4 ohms to get the full 300 watts Ade

Still would have gone for the Hipshot bridge, seems a shame to put the prehistoric ric bridge on such a fine instrument !

(Also got a Maya 'Lawsuit' Les Paul Guitar on there too) Got them for nowt and they've sat in the spare room for ages Might get me a few bob and the bass has got a hard case too . . . Oooh errr missus

Right ! when are we going to get to hear one or all of your cabs here in the midlands ? Northants to be exact ! Can't afford to take a punt on one at the mo I'm afraid, but would love to test one. Cheers Ade

Got a mate on here selling a Peavey Zodiac . . . . . [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=28013&hl=Peavey+zodiac"]PEAVEY ZODIAC[/url] He's looking around the £200 for it

Which of the 4x10 cabs are you looking at?

Glyn is a top bloke Bought his Guild B-301 for a good price, as described with no bullshit Met me halfway to save a long journey No probs at all

Well I'm the new proud owner of the Guild B-301 I'm really pleased with it, great condition for a 33yr old bass I had a B-301 when I was 20 and should never have let it go and I have yearned for one for ages, but most that come along are either battered or fretless. At least this was fretted at one point and will be again soon ! It will be off this week for a re-fret and then out on regular gig duty along side my Ric 4003 They are going to look great together. Chuffed to bits , Cheers Glyn

[quote name='NoLogic69' post='371363' date='Jan 5 2009, 08:39 PM']Well Guys, thanks for all your comments! I'm now the proud owner of a beautiful Fireglo 4003, which I bought from Geddy's Nose (cheers Simon). I'm very happy to say that it sounds incredible through my LM11 and 2x Loud Inc 2x10 cabs. [/quote] Told ya !

Well its a great combination ! Let the people who have them tell you what they are like, NOT what people 'think' they might or might not be like together ! I use a Ric 4003 thru MarkBass LMII & 410HF Cab with the occasional us of a MXR M-80 dirty pedal = Loud and punchy. Not as 'clinical' as you might think either, especially when cranked up. I have a Fender P-Bass too and choose the Ric over the P just about all of the time. Go for it !

[quote name='joegarcia' post='319528' date='Nov 1 2008, 11:11 AM']What amp are you going to use and how are you going to wire it all? Looks like an impedance nightmare.[/quote] Yep looks like your going to have [i]impedance[/i] problems ! You might even become [i]impedant[/i] and struggle to get [i]get it up [/i]to a decent level Ooooh err missus

I had a 410HLF for . . . 10 mins it was effin' horrible to lug around and its not a one man lift ! Sounds good but there is better to be had that sound as good and easier to move.

[quote name='Stylon Pilson' post='318885' date='Oct 31 2008, 11:06 AM']At the vast majority of gigs, the only person who would be able to tell the difference between valve amp distortion and a processor distortion would be you. S.P.[/quote] Well thats not very helpful is it ! If we all took that view then I'm sure we would all gig with a Stagg Bass and Amp and not spend thousands on Fender, Rickenbacker, Ampeg etc As long as you are happy lugging the extra weight and the maintenance then go for it ! I've had many a comment on my tone and I just play covers in pubs ! So striving for you sound it not all in vain I assure you. Go for it !
